1950 Map of Greensburg
USGS Topo · Published 1950About this map
Greensburg serves as the central hub for this St. Helena Parish survey, recorded during a period of transition in rural Louisiana infrastructure. The town is situated at a key intersection of state routes, including State Highway No 35 and State Highway No 1310. The surrounding landscape is defined by an intricate network of waterways like the Tickfaw River and Twelvemile Creek, which are fed by numerous family-named branches. For the genealogist, this map is especially valuable for its precise location of rural landmarks, such as the St Helena Training Sch, Crossroads Ch, and several family burial grounds including Foster Cem and the Womack-Bickham Cem. The survey reveals a settled agricultural region where community life revolved around these small country churches and schools scattered across the wooded creek drainages.
